We raise money to donate medical equipment to help disadvantaged children in Colombia

Story

All money raised will go directly to FOCSA, whose mission is to help to improve the lives of the most disadvantaged children in Colombia.

Your sponsorship money will go to the Hospital of Guapi, Cauca - located in a very rural part of Colombia. It serves a community of 30,040 people which includes children in urgent need of help. It is the only one with 24 hours of A&E service.  This project is mainly to provide the necessary attention to the maternal, anti-natal and newborn babies in order to raise healthy children. The hospital is in urgent need of a portable ultrasound machine, infusion pumps and other important medical equipment to supply the pediatrics service. 

Your donations will enable FOCSA to continue its valuable work.
